Up North Worship Retreat 2024
Up North Worship Retreat is coming up in October from the 4th-5th! Your role on the worship team is crucial, and taking 24 hours to be poured into after you pour out your talents so often is so important. This is an amazing opportunity for you to be invested in, encouraged, and challenged.
Not only will you be poured into, but this is also a great time to get to know others on your worship team and other teams. We'll have multiple breaks, allowing you to experience all the camp has to offer, and you'll receive practical tips, tricks, and advice during our breakout sessions!
Tech teams - *THIS INCLUDES YOU!* Tech is an integral part of the worship team and we'd love for you to be there!
KEYNOTE SPEAKER
Mark Alan Schoolmeesters is a Minneapolis-based songwriter, producer and communicator who is focused on bringing the best out of people, projects, and ideas. Mark is a staff writer at Nashville-based Integrity Music and a music pastor at Eagle Brook Church in Minneapolis. Mark has written songs on GRAMMY and DOVE award nominated projects for Chris Tomlin [Holy Roar (Songwriter: I Stand In Awe)], Jesus Culture [Let it Echo (Songwriter: In The River)] and [Love Has a name (Songwriter: Fresh Outpouring)], and Selah [One Name (Songwriter: Glory Hallelujah & God Of Ages)] and has produced projects for artists like REVERE (Leeland, DOE, Mark Barlow, Gabriel Guides de Almaeda), LO WORSHIP, and many others.
The local church remains an important part of Mark’s life. He has served in his current role as a central music pastor at Eagle Brook Church since 2019. Prior to that, Mark built teams at two other churches, for 10 years and 9 years. Mark spends time and energy investing in other leaders throughout the US as he speaks at conferences and retreats, on podcasts, and through coaching. In every project, no matter the size or scope, Mark considers it a privilege to come alongside artists, creatives, and leaders to encourage them to be the fullest version of who God has created and called them to be.
